Expected publication: June 2nd 2015 by Dianne Duvall

From the New York Times bestselling author of the acclaimed Immortal Guardians series comes an enchanting new series full of romance, danger, and loyalty: The Gifted Ones

Since the day Lord Dillon earned his spurs, rumors of his savagery on the battlefield have preceded him into every room, stilling tongues and sparking fear. Weary of battle, he wishes only to find a woman he can wed who will approach him not with fear, but with the tenderness that has been absent from his life for so long. Yet only the wisewoman seems invariably at ease in his presence. Perhaps because she garners the same fear in others that he does himself.

For seven years, Alyssa has been by Lord Dillon’s side, counseling him from the shadows, healing him with her hands, and staving off the worst of his loneliness while his fearsome reputation keeps others at bay. Blessedβ€”or cursedβ€”with gifts that label her a sorceress, she is forced to conceal her youth and the love she harbors for him beneath umbral robes that lead Dillon and his people to believe she is the same aged wisewoman who served his father.

All is revealed, however, and passions flare when an enemy threatens Dillon’s life and Alyssa sacrifices everything to save him. When Dillon discovers that the wisewoman is far from elderly, he is instantly entranced. And, as he and Alyssa work together to defeat an enemy bent on destroying them both, Dillon will risk anythingβ€”even the wrath of his kingβ€”to be with her.

Excerpt

His arms closed around her of their own accord as her mouth settled upon his and stole his breath.Β  The intimacy they shared amazed him more every day, extending so much further than the lovemaking they lost themselves in when darkness fell and the rest of the keep slumbered.Β  A look.Β  A touch.Β  A melding of lips.Β  They were both so hungry for affection.Β 

Dillon had always been secure in the love of his brother.Β  How often had they hugged or draped an arm around one another’s shoulders, slapped each other companionably on the back, or rumpled each other’s hair in jest?Β  He had thought little of it at the time, mayhap taking it too much for granted.Β  But Alyssa…

She had been so isolated for most of her life.Β  Feared.Β  Hated.Β  Shunned.Β  Utterly untouched.Β  Even he had avoided physical contact with her, touching her rarely when not employing her gifts, ensuring that a respectful distance remained between them at all times, never considering how much she might need an occasional brush of his hand.

However now that their relationship had changed and deepened and evolved, Dillon could not keep his hands off of her.Β 

Whenever they were alone, he felt compelled to touch her hair, tunneling his fingers through it if she left it loose or smoothing his hand over it when it was not, tucking wayward strands back into place.Β  The silky texture of her cheek always seemed to beckon, demanding a brief caress.Β  Her shoulder fit so perfectly beneath his large palm.Β  ’Twas only natural that it would itch to go there.Β  And even more natural for his fingers to glide down her arm to link with hers.

The small of her back, the curve of her hip, the stubborn thrust of her chin, her tiny feet, that special place behind her ear that called out for a nuzzle, the little crinkle that formed between her brows when she was concentrating or angered all drew him like a magnet, their pull irresistible.

’Twas new to him, this adoring yet nonsexual compulsion to touch her and display his affection.Β  And the more he gave in to it, the more comfortable Alyssa seemed to grow with his love, surprising him with similar gestures of her own.

Like this kiss that awakened within his body desires he dare not give in to until this matter was settled.

But ’twas so very tempting.

    This sounds like a really good book – thanks for the spotlight and giveaway

    Why the change in genre and how many books will be in this series? And I’m understanding you are still continuing your previous series?

    • Hi, Diane! Paranormal and historical have always been my favorite romance genres. I actually wrote this one before I began my Immortal Guardians series. Seth and Marcus, who make appearances in this book, and all of the what ifs that resulted from Dillon and Alyssa’s story are what inspired me to create my Immortal Guardians series. πŸ™‚

      I don’t know yet how many books will be in The Gifted Ones series, but suspect it may be as long as my Immortal Guardians series. And I definitely intend to continue my Immortal Guardians series. Ethan’s story and Yuri’s story will both be released in August in SHADOWS STRIKE and ON THE HUNT. And a seventh novel will follow next year. I hope you’ll enjoy them!
